Being beastly

Victoriana, in its vainglorious depiction of bugs and birds, is the basis of this array of surreal interpretations by design duo Timorous Beasties. They provide a contemporary platform for the late 19th century offering striking interior designs that draw on the work of John Ruskin, illustrations from Francois le Vaillant and Thomas Bewick.
